Go to Field Locations if you need directions to the Holy Angels Academy Star Dome.
NOTE: Our parking is in the St. Peter's Catholic Church parking lot. Space there may be more limited this year...the school has designated a larger number of "Student Only" spots.
If needed, park in the surrounding neighborhood streets, or in the Hub Shopping Center lot across 66th Street, north of the dome.
We could squeeze one or two more players onto the field for Game 1 (8:30 a.m.) on Thursday! If you're interested in playing ONE GAME on Thursday, sign up, but Don't mail it in...bring your registration to the dome, with a check for your fee...we'll put you on a roster at that time.

West Metro Senior Softball Found A New Home in 2018!
Round Lake Park in Eden Prairie was our new 4-field home in 2018!
We're now indoors to the Holy Angels Dome in Richfield, but will return
outdoors to Eden Prairie in April, 2019.

The Weather Stone
Click The Stone for Current Weather & Forecasts
Unlike the old Metrodome in Minneapolis, the Holy Angels Dome in Richfield rarely collapses while we're playing ball (i.e., never). So chances are good you won't be seeing the Weather Stone much this winter. But if the snowpocalypse hits around game time, look for the Weather Stone to rise to the surface (of this page) and give you some stone cold sober advice.
